Former IBF super flyweight king Dmitry Kirillov (30-4-1, 10 KOs), the first Russian to capture a major boxing title at home, made his successful return after almost five years of retirement, by stopping professional trialhorse Alexander Saltykov (8-28-3, 5 KOs), yesterday at the Giant Hall of Casino Conti in St. Petersburg, Russia.

This bout was fought at super bantamweight limit.
